Tag: Low-Cost Cloud Security Best Practices

Cybersecurity Awareness Month may be coming to a close, but we have already set our eyes on the future. The question is: How can we stay “security aware” year round and, more importantly, translate this awareness into actions that will help keep our companies secure?

Cybersecurity has never been more important than in the past few years. It seems that every week, a major new breach hits the news headlines, leaving every company more and more worried about whether they’re next. This month — National Cybersecurity Awareness Month — has been a great reminder to verify whether your security protocols and practices are up-to-date and effective. But with the state of things today, you can’t afford to stop there.

We believe that done right, security is a 24/365 operation. If you’ve been following our blog, you’ve learned that there are many ways to streamline and automate security so it doesn’t require an army to maintain.

Good security takes effort. But it’s not impossible — far from it. The key to achieving better security is to focus on embedding the right types of thinking early on. Make good security hygiene as natural as muscle memory. And before you start to worry about budget, take note: There are many low-cost, relatively easy measures you can take that will have a big impact on your organization’s security posture.

Recently, we hosted a webinar to outline what some of these low-cost practices look like. We want to show you that it isn’t impossible to achieve security on a budget, especially if you focus on implementing it collaboratively with your teams and building a truly security-conscious culture.

Here’s where we think you should be focusing your energies to achieve big results for little or no cost.
